Urgent help with acne/skincare routine.

I'd boil some hot water and put a towel over my head while leaning over it. Exfoliate and then splash cold water on your face. :)

I do this process once a week, and it helps clear my pores for that deep clean feeling. And try powder exfoliators of some sort, I hear they are gentler to the skin than liquid ones.

You just posted an acne/skincare thread an hour ago. Reposts aren't allowed so this may be deleted.

Alexis, sometimes when you have acne, you just feel overwhelmed. She probably just wants all the help she can get. Her posts aren't in any way inconveniencing me. I know it's not your rules but it's really not hurting anyone.

No problem. I've been in your shoes before. So what kind of acne are you dealing with? Mild, moderate, extreme? Whiteheads? Cysts?

Hannah, I know you're not asking me but I'd thought I'd share to see if anyone can help me...lol.
I have moderate acne, I have white heads, I have blackheads, my skin is combination but mostly oily with a few dry patches.

I've had acne my whole life and only recently have I discovered an almost fool proof method! Target has a Bior? active charcoal (which is great for skin!) soap bar for only $6. it's a great exfoliant and when you wash it off it feels like you stuck your face in a freezer (in a good way) I use it every night and some mornings if I'm feeling oily. it's great. I've also learned to partner it with goats milk soap bars for the face. goats milk is great for moisturizing! after all is said and done, I finish up with Clean & Clear moisturizer!

Hey Brook! What's your current skincare routine? What kind of moisturizer do you use and do you exfoliate once a week?
